Yeah, and that's what make this episode so great.

@@rudeus7043 it is pretty obvious, but by the way he was speaking, he sounded like he thought Askeladd killing everyone was the original plan

@@rudeus7043 he wasn't talking to u

Really, You don't say

He saved two things. His king and his homeland

@@Sonofsun. Doesnt matter, the subject of the main comment is about the cinematography of the show. Not his name.

And referring to Thorfinn as "Thor's son" shows how much respect he had for Thors.

Yh cause it was floki

@@Sonofsun. Askeladd is Ash-lad, aske means ash in norwegian. And the name Askeladd comes from a folktale about a young man that is said to be god for nothing and only deals with ash, but ends up rising above his older brothers that was always favored by their parents. His backstory in the show is a more grim version of his backstory in the folktale, so while saying that his name is Ash-lad is not wrong per say, it would be the same as finding someone named Gabriel and calling them Jibril.

sonofsun It’s Askeladd. It doesn’t have to be spelled how it sounds. It’s a different language.

that moment made me cry like a little bitch and read the manga right away, farmland saga was some of the best character development i have ever seen in my whole life

@@glovecompartment00 farmland is so lit Spoiler the reunion of canute and thorfinn was amazing and they both have that look im their eyes

would explain why he looked so fucking kingly

Lucius artorius castus was said to be in the roman army, so it actually makes sense

Yes, a roman Toga that’s what you call it.

if askeladd had his armor on he would have survived that

@Trashthlete that killed me lol

@Trashthlete Oh god . Lmfao

@Aidan S spoiler he does lol

@Aidan S here comes johnny.!!

He knew but he wasn't one himself. That's why he always had Thors on his mind and it explains why he got frustrated at Thorfinn on their last duel. It wasn't only because he lost his friend it was because he couldn't find a single trace of Thors in his son.

Thus the legend of the dad slayer is born

Him and Canute’s character development imo is even better than Eren Yeager. I’m on book 6 rn and I’m so hyped to get the next ones

@@mightdai7489 yes they have outstanding character development, but better than Eren? That's a bit of a stretch IMO but still they (especially Thorfinn) have very good character development nonetheless

Toma TTC maybe not Canute but I definitely think Thorfinn. Eren had insane character development ever since he learned truth from seeing his dad’s past. He never cared about killing anyone anymore since he knows there’s been enough, which is why he wants freedom for all and is manipulating everyone. I think Thorfinn had better tho solely because he was an innocent boy who tossed into rage once his dad died. And the fact the he was basically raised by the guy who killed Thors which was arguably one of the best characters every is surprising since he hated him, yet when he died it’s like he lost another dad. Then in manga he is fed up with fighting like Eren, and is little by little trying to understand the words Askeladd and Thors has been saying, what it means to be a warrior. I’ve only read up to book 6 but the panels are mindblowing the dreams he has, and the huge resistance to fighting only when he needs to. Can’t wait to see the farm attack

@@TomaTTC23 I think Eren Yeager has fantastic development through AoT's run, but Thorfinn's is more dramatic. Eren has always had the fighting spirit, the anger, the rage, but throughout the course of the story turned from blind rage to cold, calculated efficiency highlighted by the events in Marley. Thorfinn experiences the complete opposide, where he discovers himself after years of torment and rage to organically discovering peace within himself. The dramatic 180 Thorfinn undergoes is more impressive imo since it feels completely natural and beautiful, I didn't feel any sense of whiplash or sudden changes in his character that weren't justified

@@mightdai7489 It's an insult to compare Eren to Thorfinn or Canute. Eren has no development at all. He went from "I WANT TO KILL ALL THE TITANS" to "I WANT TO KILL EVERYBODY WHO IS NOT WITH ME". Is that development for you? Don't be ridiculous

man I love the fact when askeladd asked thors to be his king he actually meant it as he was actually was searching for one to serve or follow

@@toniton9434 yes but thors had has not desire to rules anything except just being a dad

It started when he picked up his father's dagger (from the chest) and ended with him letting go of it.

thing is, that never even happened in the manga. in the manga u just see the knife on the ground. if they animate the next season like the first and keep it going, then the animes easily gonna be better than the manga imo

I know I’m late but Thorfinn dropping his knife was a symbol of him letting go of his anger and instead started to reach for Askeladd because I’m sure deep down, both of them had a type of affection for each other in a father/son way. Askeladd basically acted as a father figure for Thorfinn ever since he was a kid.

Thank you

Season 2 on its way hopefully. The manga is so good

sonofsun 🤣🤣

@@israelbriones9577 Farmland saga ❤

@@Sonofsun. It's crazy how similar the stories of TLOU2 and vinland saga are. Like it's actually insane when you think about it. But the delivery of one is clearly better than the other.

ending of thr prolouge that is

YEAH THAT SPONGEBOB SQUARE HEAD LOOKIN ASS

Vinland manga the same level as Berserk and Vagabond

John Palcon fax

Id say Demon slayer is overrated but the fans will chew my ass out

I can already hear them saying "ehhh bat tanjiro is so deep his family is dead" bruh its shounen calm down everyones family be dead

Nah

He ain’t ready for thorfinn and Canute’s development in farmland and BSW

Andrew Hubbard I can’t wait for 148/149 to be adapted

Andrew Hubbard is that out already?

The7thage The manga is but the new season doesn’t come out till next year I think.

Andrew Hubbard thanks,

I agree it's because of Askeladd he cared for him in a way and raised to turn him into what his father was. I believe he was just a pirate but in heart or by watching Thors' death he knew what a true warrior actually is... And also tested Thorfinn when he didn't killed him while he was pretending to sleep.

Very nice prediction (from a manga reader)

Hey jas lol.

@@8minato sir lmaoo

He wasn’t only mad tho, he was also sad at the same time. At the end Askeladd was a second father figure for Thorfinn.

and maybe get a friend

Or cut some trees?

God the first MC you mean brother right lol

Ikr? Buy an ice cream or something

dont compare mha with this masterpiece please
